Ferrari CEO Amadeo Felisa recently confirmed that the Prancing Horse plans to release a streetable version of the 599XX. The car will be dubbed 599 GTO, weigh 3600 pounds, and produce 650 HP. A range-topping Enzo successor is also planned.

Details are slim, but Felisa has confirmed that the GTO will make extensive use of lightweight materials and offer both modified gearbox ratios and aerodynamic bits. Wheel diameter will be at least twenty inches, and the car will reportedly produce twice as much downforce as the ordinary 599 GTB. The GTO will likely be unveiled at a dedicated event this summer.
